Texas law also applies to minors and their parents.

• Minors who violate the tobacco law can be fined up to $250 and required to attend a tobacco awareness program or participate in a tobacco-related community service. Parents of a minor convicted of a violation may be required to attend the tobacco awareness program with their child.
• A minor's driver license can be suspended or denied if the minor is convicted of a violation of the tobacco law and does not attend a tobacco awareness program or perform tobacco-related community service.
